Test drove the new 02 Civic...

The drive was cool and the guy that rode with me was totally cool with me accelerating and speeding a little. I really found that the 00' Civic is more "peppier" than the 02'. I really thought that 00' had better acceleration and handling. Maybe it is because the new 02' is a hatchback and the 00' is a coupe? Anyway, the shift knob takes some getting used to. It is also fairly roomy (front and back). I think my next car will be an 00' Si, as I was thinking about purchasing the 02' until after the test drive. Its just not my "cup of tea". Viva la 99-00' Si!
